OUT-BREAK OF THE POLISII RL: - VOLUTION. (From tire British and Forei f pz Review.) It win; in the evening of the 29th of November 18:30, that cm estuererita eq the military schools and of the university, with few civilian e , proceeded by different paths to the Park of La zienki. -end concealed themselves in the adjoining thickets near the bri ige of Sobieski. The statue of the deliverer of Vienna and of "Christendom, which adorned the bridge, seemed to tere, side v yer their enterprise, and they waited with throbbing hearts for 'the appointed time. An accidental ciecometance caused sonic delay, but at length the blaze of the brewery, the signal agreed upon, burst through the surrounding darkness and be e ame distinctly visible. Peter NV; socki, one of the confele !rates, immediately rushed into the room where the Polish Ensigns were listening to their evening lecture, and exclaimed, Poles I the hour of vengeance has struck—this night we van quish or die 1' Of one hundred and eighty Ensigns who were present, enly seven were in, the secret of the intended insurrec tion—bra the appeal was understood by all, and in one enthu siastic shout the cry of to arms,' burst from the meeting. Lieueenant Nyko their lecturer headed the Ensigns. Tis e civ;:iians being unarmed, provided themselves with capons at e Russian school of Ensigns, who consented to remain neu ral. The confederates then separated into two parties. A few Students of the university, with some Ensigns (in all twelve in number), proceeded tram the bridge of Sobieski to the Palace of Belvedere, the residence of Constantine, while tie remainder, amounting to About a hundred and sixty, endeavou ret). by an attack on the Russian barracks, situated ie the Perk of Lazienki, and between that place and Warsaw, to divert the attention of the troops from the party at the Palace. The &lots fired by the confederates at different places, as sigials for the double attack on the Palace and on the barracks—the darkness of the night, and the doubt which prevailed as to the nieuber of the assailants and the extent of the insurrection—excited a general feeling of alarm, which was soon increased by the heavy firing of the troops, the less r egu l ar musketry o f the Poles, and the shouts of the excited Students and Ensigns. Wide co_ lvmns of the Russian cavalry, recovered from their surprise, anight be seen gathering in the gloom, and hastening to form themselves in dense and regular masses under their officers. " In the mean time the party of twelve which Lad proceeded towards the Palace, soon reached its destination. The senti nels, struck by terror, or secretly inclined to the cause of the Poles, offered no resistance, and with the cry of Nabielak Death to the Tyrant,' the gates of the Palace core passed, the confederates penetrated into the court-yard, and forting tlite doors with the butt-ends of their muskets, found themselves within the very lair of their mortal enemy, who at this hour ac -cording to his custom was asleep. The Russian general Gen dre endeavoured to oppose the progress of the youthful confe derates, but he was borne down at the point of the Inyonet and Lubowidzki, the Vice President of Warsaw, rho joined him, was severely wounded. It is probable that Cinstantine - would have paid the forfeit of his life to the just indignation and excited passions of the young men, in whose power he might now be considered, had it not been for one of tlose acci cidents, which we can hardly lament, as it perhaps stved the confederates from the reproach of inflicting a summary though well-earned punishment on their tyrant. " It was the Grand Duke's custom to sleep. with a .-alet in waiting at the door of his chamber, and such was the ieverity exercised by him even towards his domestic attendants, that the person who filled this post was neve r perm i tted, under ?ain of immediate punishment, to enter his sleeping apartment until summoned by an appointed signal. The valet was in alend ance when the Students broke into the Palace and heard the tumultuous attack ; but the force of habit and the dread cf the knout prevailed over his sense of duty or supposed affeetion towards his master. He did not awake the Grand Duke. Yet dreading the danger of the affray which seemed rapidly ap proachietsg, he locked the door of the chamber in which his master. slept, and hurried down a steep and, retired flight of stairs, which communicated with the Duchess's apartments in the wing of the Palace. The impetuous stiedents in their search for the Grand Duke, passed the door which the valet !sad just abandoned, and rushed down the same stairs into the court-yard below ; but ignot ant of the interior of the Palace, and of the situation of the room in which the object of their search and of their vengeance lay concealed, they were foiled in their endeavours be discover him. " Finding a lolagee stay at Belvedere with their limited numbers too ha,eardous an experiment —a detachment of Rus sian cavalry having been actually sent to cut off their retreat__ the youthful. band rejoined their comrades at the Bridge of Sobieski. These, in the meantime, had augmented their ranks to about two hundred, by calling on the School of Nen- Commiesioned Officers to join them. The call was promptly acceded to, and was immediately followed by a combined attack on the barracks of the Russian lancers of the guard, who were thrown into a confusion from which they did not re cover, till a regiment of hussars and another of curassiers came to their assistance. The confederates now found them selves in an open and exposed situation, in front of three regiments of cavalry, who threatened them with an imme diate attack, and who every moment expected further rein forcennents. They were obliged, therefore, to seek a more favourable position, and retreated deeper into the Park of La zienki. " This park extends from the gardens and pleasure -grounds of the Palace Belvedere to the Vistula. As it approaches the river, it assumes a broken and marshy character. It is in tersected at intervals with reservoirs of water, canals (over one of which the Bridge of Sobieski is built) communicating with the Vistula, and it is also covered with plantations and trees of a large growth. No place could be better adapted for the operations of a body of infantry opposing an attack of cavalry, and the ensign s , i n se l ect i ng i t, proved that the in structions of their lecturer had not been thrown away upon them. Protecting themselves as much as possible by the en -tangled nature of the ground, and favoured by the darkness of the night, they hastily formed their small force into a hollow square, and resolutely awaited the attack of the Russian guards. They did not wait long. The cuirassiers imme diately charged in columns; but the front line of the students received the troopers on their bayonets, while the rear ranks poured in a destructive volley, which speedily emptied fifty saddles of their riders. Surprised by the steady resistance they encountered perplexed by the irregularities of the ground, and the darkness of the night—dismayed by the un wonted shout of Niech Zyie Polska,' Poland for ever !' which within the very precincts of the palace, rose high and loud over the din of the combat—the soldiers wavered—fell into disorder —and eventually fled to their barracks. " The confederates now moved towards Warsaw. They were encountered at Uyasdow on their road; to the captital by the regiment of lancers ; and at the entrance of Warsaw, in a quar ter of the town which, from being recently built, bears the name of the New World,' by the hussars. Still favoured by the darkness of the night, and th e i gnorance of the enemy as to their nu m b ers , they boldly attacked and dispersed both these regiments notwithstanding their great superiority o f force. The t roops t h en retreated towards Belvedere, and their youthful conquerors entered Warsaw. These brilliant ac tions,' we must repeat with M. Brozozowski, in which three complete regiments of the cavalry of the guards were defeated lay two hundred sub-officers and students, deserve the most prominent place in the annals of military heroism. They also gave the Russians a foretaste of the war which was about to commence, and an earnest of what Polish valour was capable of performing in the sacred cause of national likerty.' " On entering the capital of their country after the events of which we have given but a feeble sketch, the confederates were forcibly impressed with the difficulty of their position. The danger which hung over them was imminent, and the heavy responsibilities which attached to their proceedings were painfully apparent. They were isolated, as it were, from so ciety. On the one hand, they had offended their Muscovite rulers past all leope of forgiveness, on the other their coun trymen had net openly joined them. The contrast, too, be tween the e - eents in which they had just been busy actors, and the scenes they now beheld, was very striking. An hour had not elapsed since they were engaged in a deadly struggle with the Russian guards. The ringing of the arms of the cuiras siers—the heavy tread of their horses as they rushed to the charge—she shouts and the firing of their own party—still eeemed present with flie minuteness of reality. But all before them bore the character of peace and of repoSe. Several of the mansions of the Nobility and wealthier classes were lighted for evening soirees—the theatres were open, and crowded_ the trader was closing his shop for the night, and the lower orders plied with wonted industry the thousand occupations, which mark the humbler citizen of a large and populous com munity. A few only of the inhabitants retired to their houses, and waited with anxiety the course of events. They were either in the confidence of the confederates, or from living in the quarter of the city of to the Palace, were alarmed by the unusual appeasrance of fires in the horizon, the dropping shots in the distance, and the less equivocal sounds of a hostile encounter a' the combatants approached. " It was absolutely and urgently necessary to dispel the apathy 'which thus prevailed throughout Warsaw.. To accom plish this, the confederates dispersed themselves in every di.. reet,ion, with the cry of to arms'--' to arms !' One rushed into the Theatre de Varietes,' and exclaimed, Poles Iye 'amuse yourselves while the Russians massacre your brethren another immediately foll owe d , crying—' Men, to ar ms — to arms'—' the women to their homes !' The play -house was abandoned immediately. The alarm spread in every direc tion. Groups of people soo n appearyl in the streets looking and asking for arms. They directed to the arsenal. It was attacked and take;,, Its contents, upwards of 30,000 stand. of arms, wes e distributed among the inhabitants. The People thus ?.:need directed their course to the state prison of t},e Carmelites—the Polish Bastille—where many languished for alleged political crimes. Its inmates were soon released, and the victims of Constantine's tyranny, who for months had suffered confinement, privation, and torture, again enjoyed the blessings of freedom. " The Polish troops composing the garrison of Warsaw, were as little prepared as the citizens for the momentous events of that night. The intended insurrection was known only to some lieutenants, and other sub-officers, who could not be supposed to exercise much personal influence over their regi enents. An appeal, therefore, was made to the national feel ing% of the army. Such an appeal had ever been successful when addressed to Polish troops, and in the present instance it was not made in vain. The 4th regiment of the line was the first that declared i n f avour o f the national cause. It had frequently attracted the attention and praises of the Grand Duke by its high discipline and military bearing, and it now added another claim to his admiration—that of devoted patrio tism. The example it set was quickly followed by a corps of flying artillery, with their battery of field nieces. A large portion of the grenadiers, and a battalion of sappers and mi ners were not slow to follow ; and in cases where the officers seemed to hesitate or to distrust their men, the soldiers ex claimed—' We rare not for consequences—lead us, if you please —if not, we join our countrymen without you.' Mane obnoxious officers fell in the tumultuous proceedingswhich ensued. Amongst them was General Hauke, Minister of War, a ready tool of Constantine's capricious will ; and the hateful General I3lo mer, who fell pierced with eighteen bullets. The Russian Gen6ral Sass, the chief of the Secret Police, and several of the detested Corps of Spies, were also killed in the partial en counters which took place. Unfortunately many tie't'itorious and honourable men wore sacrificed with the s'teilty." SPORTTNG INTELLIGENCE. Chapple 1 LANCASTER RACES—FIRST Der. TUESDAY. BRIDGNORTH RACES--SECOND DAY.

()An WAGER.—The contest amongst the watermen of Whitehall Stairs for a Purse of Sovereigns, given by the No blemen and Gentlemen of the vicinity, took place yesterday. The four first to start for the grand heat. The distance con tested was from Westminster Bridge, round the police brig facing Arundel Stairs, then round a boat facing Chandler's, at Millhank, and return to Whitehall. Hamilton and Jones (yellow) were the men thrown out of the first heat, and the other four pairs started at seven o'clock for the grand heat. The wind was blowing very hard down the river, and they went off well without any apparent advi , ntar , e, when Thomas Pince and Thomas Jones (blue) took the lead, had it all their own way, and won easily. Castles managed the match very ' well. There were very few boats out. DOUBLE SCULLS MATCH AGAINST A PAIR OF OARS.— The match of Colonel Greenwood and Captain Foley, with a pair of sculls each, against two watermen, John and Wilson Emery, of Whitehall, with a pair of oars, came off yesterday. The boats started from Westminster Bridge to row to Putney, and the Emerys got the lead after a few strokes, and main tained it to Wandsworth, where their boat capsized, and Wil son Emery was, with some difficulty, saved. The gentlemen were, of course, the winners. The match was a strictly pri vate one, liFit the names have been furnished to our reporter from a very good authority. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.

After one false start the lot got off in the most beautiful style, Pussy, after the jockies had picked their ground, taking the lead at a good steady racing pact, followed by Oberon, Rainbow, Flush, Tiber, Roadster, and Knobstick Rockingham, Rush, and Felix lying in the rear, but all in v.ittcellent places. In this order they went round the clump. 14 material change of position having hi therto occurred. hi going down th e hill i n t o stra i g h t runn i ng, Lady An ne anal Taglioni died away, and Pussy gave up the lead.

The s t ar ti ng f or thi s , as well as for all th other races at Goodwood, was most admirably managed. The winner was scarcely mentioned in the betting, and Roadster not all.

The House of Peers verily is resolved to separate tself entirely from public opinion, and to lose no op portunity of proving its incapability to serve the people as a' Legislature. Last night the Stafford Disfran chisement Bill was contumeliously rejected, without a single Tory Peer expressing any desire for a real re formation of the most notoriously corrupt and the basest constituency in Christendom Our Tory Con temporaries will probably tell us, that the LORD CHANCELLOR and the PREMIER assisted at the ob sequies of the Bill, and that four Liberal Peers only voted in its favour. Both those Ministers, however, merely objected to the entire disfranchisement of the borough, both pledging themselves to some extensive measure of reformation. We repeat, where are we to discover any expression of anxiety for the extirpation of Stafford rottenness in any of the fifty Tory Lords (including some dozen Bishops), who thus cast out the Bill, without any promise of a substitute ? The Duke of WELLINGTON argued for the second reading, that it might form the staple of effective le gislation, though his Grace voted against it ! We arc, however, comforted to see by the debates that the Marquis CLANRICARDE lost not time in accom modating the Noble Duke with a second Bill, the object of which is to disfranchise the old and most rotten portion of the elective body. This latter Bill was read a first time, and will be again before their Lordships on Tuesday. The . Peers cannot pretend the want of time-to inform. themselves of the corny, tion •of Stafford, when such a 'mass of dvidepte from' the Commons has been months before their Lordships' eyes, and a cloud of living witnesses have been ex amined at their bar the last few weeks. If this blackened borough is to be whitewashed by the Lords, all future proceedings against bribers and election corruptionists may be spared ; but it will be only decent to repeal the innumerable " statutes at large," which pe nally prohibit the purchase of the elective fran chise and treating by candidates. Let us at once declare that every county and borough seat in the House of Commons, be lawfully put up to public auction, and knocked down to the highest bidder. The Bishops may then release their flocks from the nuisance of any observance of the Ten Command ments, and preach sermons in favour of riots and drunkenness. If Stafford is to receive political abso lution, there is certain impunity for the most depraved electioneering sinner. We know no result of the pre sent Session which will more disgust the Reformers, than the loss of an ultimate measure of reformation of the borough of Stafford. If Lord CLANRICARDE's second Bill, which, from the speeches of Lord MEL BOURNE and the Lord CHANCELLOR, will be sup ported by Ministers, is rejected, none but fools can expect any further reform of the representative system from Parliament. The Commons, however, cannot allow their own body to be thus tainted by a detected constituency, and Mr. DIVETT must, if necessary, again suspend the writ. We expect that the bells of Stafford will be rung merrily to-morrow, and that thanksgivings for the miraculous escape of its bur gesses will be offered up in all their churches and chapels. Retribution, however, will overtake the cor- ruptionists at last ; and, we have little doubt, from the second Bill of Lord CLANRICARDE. The Established Church Bill was read a second time last night, in the House of Lords. Lord MELBOURNE, on moving the Order of the Day for the second reading, delivered a speech which gave Oitutied satistactidd to the Bishops. Whether it will be equally satisfactory to those who wish to see a real refoini of the great and multiplied abuses with tbhich our whole ecclesiastical systein is °Verrill) ; we shall not take Upon oitisfqvcs t 0 It niay tie Proper in the Noble Viscount, holding file situation which he does in his Majesty's Councils, to defend the measures of the Government, so far at least as to show that they aro the best that under the circumstances could be adopted ; but to vindicats such a measure as the Bill in question on its own absolute merits, and to eulogize the very parts of it which have called forth the indignant re monstrances of Reformers of all shades and degrees, both in and out of Parliament, is a flight for which the public were scarcely prepared, and of which, we confess, we can see neither the sense nor the policy. If Lord MELBOURNE imagines that any honied words that he can employ towards the Bishops will charm away the inveterate hatred which they and the whole Tory party ente.-tain towards him and his colleagues, he is mightily mistaken. Nothing that the Noble Vis • count can either say or dd will ever mitigate in the least degree that hatred, though it may excite other feelings of which it is not so desirable to be the object. Lord MELBOURNE, in vindicating the course taken by Ministers on the question of Church Reform, re marked that " there was nothing for them to do but I t o retrench the superfluity, and correct that which ap- Tared to them to be in some degree subject to the charge of being an abuse." Is this, we ask, the way in which the monstrous corruptions which have so long deformed and disgraced the Church Esta blishment ought to be mentioned by the Head of a Reforming Administration ? Why, the Tories themselves never use such mincing lan guage, They now confess that there are things in the Church which not only "appear to be in some degree subject to the charge of being an abuse," but which actually are great' nd enormous abuses, and of which the safety of the Church demands the speedy removal. The Noble Lord complains that the Bishops have been unjustly accused of "cupidity in the plan which they have recommended, and which the Go vernment so very politely adopted. No charge was ever more just. If the Bishops had had one grain of true disinterestedness in their composition, they would, instead of paring-off a trifling portion from the reve nues of the wealthier Sees, and postponing the opera tion of this reduction, inconsiderable as it is, till after the death of the present occupants, have reduced the emoluments to one-third of their present amount, and hare given effect to the law at once by a voluntary surrender of the surplus. This would have been a creditable and a Christian course of conduct. It would have proved that they did not wish to subject their successors to privations which they thought too great for themselves. Neither would it have been then said, that in recommending an income of 15,0001. per annum to the Archbishop of CANTERBURY, and 10,0001. to that of LONDON, the Bishop of LONDON had an eye to CANTERBURY, or he of LINCOLN was looking to LONDON. But it seems that the " rules of fashion," from which the Archbishop of CANTERBURY cannot escape, require his income to be at least as great as he himself has recommended it to be—that is 15,0001. a year. We never before understood that it was part of an Archbishop's duty to conform to the rules of fashion. Must the Right Reverend Father in God have a box at the opera ? After this we shall not be surprised to see his Grace pirouetting at Almack's, keeping a stud at Newmarket, and presiding over some of the fashionable establishments at the West End of the town. Advices from Madrid, to the 21st inst., have been received, but the intelligence they bring is neither in teresting nor important. Is Tußiz calculates that he will have a majority of from forty to fifty Deputies in the new Chamber. It was apprehended in the capital that GOMEZ had entered Gallicia, leaving ESPARTERO sufficiently in his rear to fear nothing from his division. MINA has however cleared Catalonia of the Carlists, large bodies of whom fled into Arragon, where they will be encountered by General SAN MIGUEL. The ridiculous display made by QUESADA in the capital on the night of the 17th is a subject of mirth with all but the gallant General and the leading Mem bers of the Government, who still persist in frighten ing each other with the horrors of a petticoat con spiracy. CORDOVA is reported to be ill at Vittoria. Is this another trick to bamboozle the Government ? Has the Commander-in-Chief been infected with some contagious distemper during his seven hours' secret conference with the Carlist commander, VILLAREAL? The whole of the Paris Papers of Thursday have been received. They confirm the account of the vic tory gained by General BUGEAUD over ABD EL KADER, published in a second edition of the Con stitutio2znel of the preceding day'. The following is the official report published in the columns of the Moniteur " The Government has just received intelligence from Oran by telegraph. On the 9th inst. General Bugeaud gained a signal victory over Abd El Kader, between Tremecen and the Tafna. After having succeeded in forcing him to accept battle, the General pressed him sufficiently close to bring him to a general action. The Arab infantry was entirely de. stroyed. In spite of the ardour of the Douairs, who, after fighting bravely in our ranks, killed upwards of 500 Arabs, General 13ugeaud has the glory of taking some prisoners. This has never occurred, before in Africa. :It has been ascer : mined that the-*Ar{tbs have `lbst upwards of 'l,OOO men. There are 118' ptisoners -and silo standaids on' board the Chimer e. Abd El Kader has lost all the muskets which have been given him within the last few years. He received two wounds, and had a horse killed under him. This is one of the most im portant actions we have had in Africa. Abd El Kader has made overtures to treat, but General Bugeaud, after having given his airily a short rest, has again taken the field in pur suit of him, resolved not to allow him any time to take breath." The spies of the Government have discovered several Republican conspiracies in the Capital, in consequence of which numerous arrests took place on Tuesday. We much fear that there is but little prospect of puri fying France by such means. A free Press would soon put an end to secret societies ; but the persecu tion of opinions under the sanction of repressive enact ments will only increase them. It is rumoured that disaffection prevails in the Army, and the National Guard is in high dudgeon, because the KING neglected the formality of an Address to it, declaratory of his determination not to join in the public celebration of theletes. In fact, France is by no means at ease, as will be seen from the following extracts from the Journals :—. PARIS, JULY 27.—Nothing is talked of but arrests in Paris. To judge by the activity of the Police, we might suppose that we are surrounded by conspirators—that we sleep in depots of arms and ammunition—and walk in the midst of murderers and assassins. No fewer than four conspiracies are talked of. It is added that two of the persons arrested have made important disclosures. We know nothing of it, but we should be much surprised if any serious consequences should result from all this. W e already know what to think of the pretended return of M. De Cavaigne, who has in fact not left London ; the persons who denounced him were obliged to contradict themselves at the first examination. The famous packet Brent, freighted by the persons condemned at the April plot, who have taken refug e in England, and which was loaded with arms and ammunition, vanished as soon as serious enquiry was made for it.— Temps. It is pretended that the Duchess of Bern, whom the Police have been looking for on all the roads to the north, to the south, and even to the west, was arrested at Paris yesterday evening. We lo not answer for this news, but everything is credible of this adventurous Princess.—Journal du Commerce. The Memorial Bordelais of July 24 contains the following article : " We have just received a piece of news, the importance of which will be easily understood, and which we are able to warrant : On the 16th an interview took place between General - - UoMr , C0T1117.1 der-in.Chicf of the army of Isabella 11., and General i illa Peel; E:'orlrnipl.der-in-dhief 9f the arm} of Don Carlos.

Corcloi'd teiiirned to his head-quarters at Vittoria, and Villa Real to P.glitia. The , ;i'cutest myritery still covers the subject of this toMtzreni.-,e pbr..ap . it it re,svery difficult to penetrate it." —Estqfrtte, July 1. ft" • • • A Journal says, "We believe we iliaY fug flint of the mission of M.

THE FUNDS.--(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Our arrivals this morning are the French and Hamburg Mails, and ship letters from Madras of the 15th March ; Cape, of the 7th May ; Calcutta, of the 27th Feb. ; Mauritius, of the 10th April; Madras, of the 17th March ; and the Cape, of 14th May. By the Madras Papers we learn that the total amount ex pended, up to the Ist March, by the Breakwater Report, was 14,502,14 rupees, and that the amount of subscriptions re ceived, including interest, up to the 29th ult., was 34,636,013 rupets, leaving a balance of 20,131,141 rupees. A meeting took place at Madras, in which it was resolved that resolutions should be forwarded to the British Parliament, for the immediate establishment of a regular steam communi cation between Great Britain and India. CALCUTTA.—The weather at last has cleared up, and not a cloud is seen in the heavens. We hear that the rain was very heavy on the 16th and 17th ult. We have received Quebec Papers to the 28th of June. The following arc extracts : " LOWER PROVINCES. —hires to a very considerable extent have been raging in the rear of the settlements on both sides of the river, and have done considerable damage in the lower districts of Newcastle. " Comparative statement of arrivals, tonnage, and settlers at the port of Quebec, up to the 25th of June, 1835-1836 : Vessels. Tonnage.

A report prevailed that this sum would be offered to some leading capitalist, at 4 per cent. It is also stated that Ministers are not satisfied with the advance of the Bank in their rate of interest, and will not favour its operation. In fact, the daily employment of money proves the contrary, as they make daily purchases now, both in Stock and Exchequer Bills, for the Account of the Saving Banks, and are supposed to have large sums in hand from that source, which must be gradually brought into circulation. Consols opened this morning at the closing quotations of yesterday, 91i h for the Account; same for Money; not a bargain doing ; Exchequer Bills, 9 11 ; India Bonds 1 disct. to par ; Bank Stock, 2123 213. In the Foreign Market Spanish Active Bonds may be quoted at the closing price, 38- ; Passive, 11i : De lered, 16+ to ; Portuguese, 781 79 ; Three per Cents, 484 49 ; Columbian, 284 291 ; Mexican, 321 334- ; Dutch two-and-a-half per Cents, 55i HALF-PAST ONE. An express has arrived from Paris this morning, but we can state that it entirely relates to family and commercial affairs. Up to the present hour we have no further intelligence from the Peninsula, although a report prevailed that the meeting of the Cortes had been put off. The private letters received yesterday from Madrid, state that the resignation of Cordova has not been accepted by the Queen ; likewise that the country was in a desperate state, and that the present Ministry would not be able to hold their situations six weeks longer. Consols have continued during the morning at 91 a 4 for for Time and Money; Exchequer Bills, 9 ; India Bonds, 1 disct. ; Bank Stock, 213.

Our readers will perceive a paragraph in another part of the Advertiser, extracted from The Sun, commenting on the clause in the new Stamp Act for the registration of the names of proprietors of newspapers. The judicious and ex' cellent observations of our contemporary render it unncessarf for us to add a single word on the subject; but we are hale to understand that should any amendments in the Lords caus e the Bill again to come before the House of Commons, it is the intention of a majority of the House to expunge the obnoxiou s • provision.

AN ABRIDGED HISTORY OF THE (JOYS Tl' TUTION OF ENGLAND. in . JOHN KETTLE. London, I,:llinyltain Wilson, 1836. This tract is little more than a compilation from finnan] and other celebrated writers on the Consti:u tion of this country. We learn from its title page that its author was the founder of the first political union established in London, for the purpose of furthering the succe3s of the Reform Bill ; and its object is to prove that the theory of the Constitution is in favour of the extensive changes that arc now demanded by the people. We have , differently read the constitutional history of Great Britain, though not less zealous than Mr. Kettle in a desire to refor►n our social and civil institutions. Tl►e pamphlet is dedicated to Mr• O'Connell. MADRID, JULY 13.—1 t is reported here that General Cordova has sent in his resignation, and that a Cabi net Council has been held on the subject. It is added that the Queen Regent warmly expressed her determination to re tain the services of the Commander-in-Chief, and that, there fore, his resignation has not been accepted. I do not knov , what these men arc about. Every body thinks that sufficient time has elapsed for them to be convinced that Cordova, if not a traitor, is at least incapable of commanding 100,000 men. Well, he will be continued in his post, and the summer campaign will be lost. This country isfast running the road to revolution, and all the diplomatic combinations in the world will not be able to prevent it. Any one who will look calmly on passing events, will soon be convinced that this is not a rash conclusion. The party of the Queen is decreasing, the party of Don Carlos does not increase. What does this naturally lead us to ? That people are getting tired of both, and that the day is not far distant w hen $ Government will be founded more calculated to promote the In' terests and welfare of the nation, and more in accordance with the national feelings. The present men have done much to accelerate such a result. Instead of endeavouring to conciliate the extreme feelings of the day, by good measures in conso nance with rational liberty, they have retrograded to the worn-out policy of past-times, and have provoked the exaspe' ration of the thinking classes of the population. FATAL OCCURRENCE rN HOLBORN.—A Bo KILLED. —On Thursday evening, about a quarter past e ight o'clock, the following frightful occurrenr.e, attended with lose of life, took place in Holborn ; and it is a most miraculous circumstance, considering the crowded state of the road at the time, that several persons were not killed. At the time above' named, the driver of a cart belonging to Mr. Wm. Thacker , a clothworker and presser, in Coleman-street, City, pulled uP, at a shop near the en d o f H a tt on - gar d en , f or t h e purpos e 0' delivering some goods, leaving in the vehicle two boys, on e about fourteen and the other twelve years of age; the nO ll had not been many minutes absent, when the horse, taking fright at some thi ng w hi c h passe d , started off at full gallop down the hill, at the bottom of which the cart came with fearful force against the lamp-post by Mr. Way's, at the corner of Field-lane, whose shop front must have been ine' vitably dashed in had not the collision happened ; the horse hi the shock disengaged itself from the harness and run u p to , wards Snow-hill, but was stopped at the end of Farringdoe; street. An imm ense num b er o f persons quickly congrega t e at the spot, and in an instant attention was turned to the two boys, who were thrown with tremendous force from the shafts , on which they had been standing, into the road. The vehicle' by the aid of some of the c row d, was lif te d up, when one , the poor boys was discovered on the stones quite dead, an d his head crushed in a s h oc ki ng manner—t h e other i s B e' expected to survive; they were both conveyed on shutters to St. Bartholomew's Hospital—the cart was nearly dashed to pieces. _ _
